Kinks Frontman Ray Davies Records With Mumford And Sons

Ray Davies has revealed that he is working with a string of high profile artists on his forthcoming album.

The legendary singer-songwriter has confirmed that he has been in the studio with Mumford and Sons, Spoon and Pixies' Frank Black.

Davies also added that he has recorded with Paloma Faith and Amy MacDonald for the LP, although despite a number of rumours, The Killers won't be working with him on the project.

Other names set to be included on the album include Lucinda Williams and the late Alex Chilton from Big Star.

Meanwhile, according to Hipsters United, producer and drummer Kerry Brown has claimed that The Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan has also been in the studio with Davies to remake The Kinks' 1981 single 'Destroyer'.

The as-yet untitled album will be released later this year.
